It reads: ‘The driver or operator of a motor vehicle shall not follow another vehicle more closely than is reasonable and prudent having due regard for the speed of such vehicle and the trafâ€" | fie upon and the conditions of the \highway‘ ".

It is pointed out by the mayor that the budget is the result of much careful planning and it has been pared consistant with the necessity of providing the citizens with adequate services. "What is ‘reasonable and pruâ€" dent‘ could be interpreted by difâ€" ferent drivers differently, but poâ€" lice and others concerned with the safe movement of traffic regard one carâ€"length for each tenâ€"milesâ€" anâ€"hour of speed as a proper miniâ€" mum _ distance â€" between _ moving vehicles, That is, at say 30 miles an hour, there should be three car lengths between you and the car ahead."

He weighs 164% â€" lbs., is fiveâ€"feet nineâ€"inches in height and he does a lot of sitting behind the driving wheel before Ford engineers finalâ€" ly pass a new design as being exactly right for "Mr. Average Man", and thus for the majority of those who will drive the new care. Adjustable features built into the cars allow for the outsize or insize fellow to be comfortable too, so the plastic dummy makes a valu able contribution to the motorist‘s comfort.

(}. Mafiuel, 68 Bny'd Navy Retires HMCS Crescent As Destroyer HMCS Crescent, until recently based at Halifax, has made her last voyage as a destroyer. Naval Headquarters announced that following her arrival at the West Coast Feb. 2 the Crescent would be paid off, destored and taken in hand at HMC Dockyard for conversion into a destroyerâ€" escort, a type of vessel developed specifically for antiâ€" submarine work. The conversion of the Crescent will be the largest single job, from the viewpoint of complexity, ever undertaken by a Canadian naval dockyard. The work, which will involve removal of the presâ€" ent superstructure and its replaceâ€" ment with the low, streamlined superstructure of a DE, is scheâ€" duled to begin in March. The Crescent, commanded by Lieut.â€"Cdr. J. R. Coulter, Montâ€" real, sailed from Halifax on Jan. 9. On board, in addition to her regular crew, were a number of officers and _ men of the Royal Canadian â€" Navy (Reserve) who joined the ship for their annual sea training. Most of the present ship‘s comâ€" pany of the Crescent will go on board HMCS Algonquin, former Fleet class destroyer, which has completed conversion to a destroyerâ€"escort and which will soon commence*sea trials Completed too late to take part in the Second World War, the Crescent was loaned to the Royal Canadian Navy by Great Britain in 1945, along with a sister ship, the Crusader. Both were presented to Canada under the mutual aid policy of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization in 1951.
